GHA DISCOVERY: Get D$50 at Divani Collection Hotels

If Greece is on your 2026 wishlist, here’s a straightforward way to trim your costs.

GHA DISCOVERY members can receive a one-time D$50 bonus, plus approximately 10% savings with member rates, when booking two or more consecutive nights at Divani Collection Hotels in Greece.

The offer applies to eligible stays booked and completed between November 4, 2025 and April 30, 2026.

What’s the Offer?

Divani Collection Hotels, part of the GHA DISCOVERY program, will award a one-time D$50 bonus on completed eligible stays of two consecutive nights or more, booked and stayed between November 4, 2025 and April 30, 2026.

You must book directly via Divani Collection Hotels website, the GHA DISCOVERY app, or the GHA DISCOVERY website to be eligible for the promotion.

How to Maximize the Promotion

You’ll earn the D$50 bonus plus the Base D$ on your Net Eligible Spend (pre-tax, service charges excluded, and excluding any portion paid with D$).

If you’re eyeing Athens or Meteora (one of my favourite places) for spring shoulder season, aim for flexible member rates so you can keep change/cancel options while still qualifying. If you have multiple rooms on one booking, only one room’s nights will count for the promo.

You’ll also earn D$5 by booking through the GHA DISCOVERY app, which is an effortless way to add a little more value.

If you’d like to save even further, you can consider purchasing D$ during discount promotions. We often see 15% off sales, and the next 15% discount promotion is set to go live on November 10, 2025, should you wish to wait.

You’ll still be eligible for the D$50 bonus from the promotion, as well as the D$5 by booking through the app, but you won’t earn any D$ back from the room rate when it is paid with D$.

Quick Example

Two nights at a Divani Meteora in December is currently priced at approximately $314 USD. With this promotion, you’ll receive D$50 from the promo, up to D$18 based on your GHA DISCOVERY status, and D$5 by booking through the GHA DISCOVERY app.

If you were to book this hotel as a Titanium member, you’d receive a total of D$73 back, which is about 23% in return.

The hotel is also currently offering a breakfast-included rate as the lowest room rate, which is a plus since you won’t need Titanium status for a complimentary breakfast benefit.

This can be a strong promotion for anyone planning to visit Meteora, especially since there are no major chains like Marriott or Hilton in the area.

You’ll also check off one of three brands toward achieving GHA DISCOVERY Titanium status, which requires stays at three different brands within the program.

How Does the GHA DISCOVERY D$ Work?

GHA DISCOVERY Dollars (D$) function as a fixed-value rewards currency, where 1 D$ = $1 USD. They can be redeemed at GHA properties worldwide for stays, spa treatments, dining, and other eligible expenses.

In my experience, the conversion rate used by the front desk has generally aligned closely with the spot rate, though it may vary slightly depending on the property.

However, there are a few limitations to be aware of.

• D$ cannot be used toward taxes or service fees, only the base rate and eligible extras.
• You’ll also only earn D$ on the post-redemption portion of your bill. So if you pay entirely with D$, you won’t earn any more back on that stay.
• Redemption value is fixed, so there’s no opportunity for outsized value like with traditional airline or hotel points.

However, the upside is that earning and redeeming D$ is refreshingly straightforward. There’s no need to worry about dynamic pricing, blackout dates, or award charts.

You must book directly through GHA’s official site or a participating hotel brand to redeem D$. Some brands allow D$ to be applied during checkout online, and if this option is available, it’ll appear before payment.

For all others, D$ must be redeemed at the hotel during check-in or checkout, typically on pay-at-hotel rates, which are often more expensive and less flexible.

If you’re aiming to use D$ on a prepaid rate, be aware that many hotels don’t actually charge your card until arrival.

In these cases, I recommend contacting the hotel in advance to confirm whether D$ can be applied manually, and how to proceed.

Redemptions require a minimum of D$10, and if the reservation is cancelled and refundable, the D$ will be returned to your account—unless they’ve expired. 

Is This Promotion a Good Deal?

Yes. Based on the sample pricing above, a Titanium member can see roughly 23% back in rewards when stacking the D$50 promo, Base D$, and the D$5 app bonus.

The return can climb higher if you buy D$ during discount sales and apply them to your stay, with the usual trade-off that you will not earn Base D$ on the portion paid with D$.

If Greece is on your calendar before April 30, 2026, it is worth pricing out Divani properties in Athens, Meteora, Corfu, and other locations to compare member-rate options and maximize your overall savings.

Which Credit Card Should You Use?

Since the hotel charges in a foreign currency (likely EUR at check-in), use a no foreign transaction fee card.

Ideally, the Scotiabank Passport^™ Visa Infinite Privilege^* Card is a great option, as it also earns 3 Scene+ points per dollar spent on travel purchases.

If you don’t have one, the Scotiabank Passport^™ Visa Infinite^* Card and Scotiabank^® Gold American Express^®* Card are solid alternatives, as they don’t levy foreign transaction fees and include hotel burglary insurance up to $1,000.

Conclusion

For two-night Greek getaways booked direct, Divani’s D$50 bonus is a clean, low-friction win. Stack it with member-rate savings and the D$5 app bonus, and consider timing your plans around a 15% D$ purchase promotion if you intend to prepay with D$.

Just remember that promotional D$ expire 12 months after issuance, that one room per booking counts for this offer, and that direct channels are required to qualify.

Pair the stay with a no FX fee card to avoid unnecessary charges and you have a straightforward, repeatable play for Athens, Meteora, or Corfu.
